Chelsea? 892 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Theses transfers seem and might be out only transfers this window. With losing Diego, would the additions make up of the loss of Diego? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio 5,418 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Signing either Morata or Belotti should make us a better team than last year, just having a striker who dosen't kill our attacks is an improvement. Rudiger is probably better than cahill. Bakoyoko, i'm not sure, looked limited on the ball vs man city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea4 1,521 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Simple answer,yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marflow 39 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Belotti would be a big upgrade on Costas performances after january atleast. I think we need Sandro and Danilo to really make a big step forward with our team though, they would make up for the lost creativity with Kante and Bakayoko in central midfield and add more precision and pace into our team.

bluephoenix 1,131 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 more than last years team the question should be would it be good enough for us to compete in all competitions? Can we challenge for the CL with these transfers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despiadado.Maleante 1,046 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 No. Willy is a downgrade from Begovic Bakyolo isn't better than Matic ANY striker we get is a downgrade from Costa Rudiger is good for depth but won't improve the starting team that much. THe real area were to most improvements can come are the wing backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would cost a fortune but in terms of talent and pure goal-scoring ability, he's up there with Costa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin 2,484 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I'd be happy with Rudiger, Sandro, Bakayoko, Morata. Realistically, these are decent targets who will improve our squad. And they are all Contesque players. But I wouldn't mind grabbing a huge name such as Sanchez or Aubameyang either. I do not think Belotti will sign for us. He's the type of player that we just cannot get because they will not sell to us.Since Hazard, we weren't able to sign a player like that and Hazard happened after Munich '12.

His pure will and individual brilliance won more points than any player. Think of all the first goals he scored. I know he was pure shit after the China speculation but as a player overall his undoubtedly better atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying that Belotti is only 23, whilst Costa is close to his physical peak at 28. Give someone like Belotti 2 seasons under Conte and he could be just as good as Costa (in terms of goal scoring impact). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccg 1,528 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 With Ake-Matic*-Costa* leaving ,Bakayoko, Rudiger and a Striker coming in ,i would love to talk to Mr Hindsight to here his views lol, as it is Ake i would have preferred to keep , lets hope we get Bakayoko he should be an upgrade to Maitc, Morata-Aubameyang-Bellotti would be a upgrade on Costa, but with extra Champions league games we will need extra improvements to the squad to be better than last year also.
